Chapter 3039 Cloud Network Center (Ⅱ)

Through the introduction of Ms. Tamara, Joan learned that this suspended pyramid-shaped device is the magical base station of the cloud network, with a side length of about thirty feet, and extremely complicated spell runes engraved on the surface, some like eyes, some Some resemble cloud patterns, some resemble animals, and some abstract runes are simply indescribable, exuding a strong sense of mystery.

Joan walked around the base station twice, and carefully wrote down the runes engraved on the surface of the device. Afterwards, he still felt unsatisfied, so he asked Tamara: "Can you open the shell of this device and let me see the internal structure?"

"Of course it is possible, but after the shell of the base station is opened, the entire hall will be exposed to high-energy radiation. Ordinary people can't bear it at all. It may blind your eyes or endanger your life. Dr. Vader had better wear protective glasses first."

Tamara took out three pairs of goggles-like magic guides from the storage bag, handed one to Joan, put on one for herself, and handed the last pair of goggles to Roland.

"Your Majesty, you know that I hate strong light radiation the most. You should show Dr. Vader the internal structure of the magic base station yourself."

"Okay, leave it to me next."

Roland put on protective goggles, kept the vampire queen behind him, and chanted a spell in a low voice. The pyramid-shaped device in the air made the sound of gears turning, and under Joan's curious gaze, it opened its shell and split into four large triangles. Thick brass walls hang in midair, revealing its tightly guarded centerpiece to visitors.

The radiance gushing out from inside the base station was too strong, Joan quickly raised his hand to cover it, until his eyes adapted to the sudden increase in light, he carefully removed his palm and looked at the center of the magic base station.

What appeared in front of his eyes at this moment was a group of radiant clouds, suspended ten feet above the ground and not dispersing.

Approaching the cloud cluster and observing carefully, it is found that the cloud cluster is composed of countless extremely fine luminous particles.

"Dr. Vader, those luminous particles are the spell slots stored in the Magic Base Station. The brightness of the particles varies from strong to weak, representing spell slots of different levels. Together they form a glowing 'magic cloud'."

Roland pointed to the center of the base station and explained to the young mage.

"As we all know, the core function of the cloud network is the spell bank, the magic guide base station is the vault of the spell bank, and the magic cloud is like all the deposits in the vault."

"Spell bits, as the basic particles that make up the magic cloud, are moving randomly, but the magic cloud as a whole presents a clear and layered probability distribution picture."

"It's like the elementary particles of different energy levels are on different orbits, and the spell slots of different levels are also distributed on different orbits. The farther away from the center of the magic cloud, the higher the ring number of the spell slot, which means the more magical power it contains. powerful."

"The mystery of the magic base station is that its core is infused with divine power, which provides a huge centripetal force for the magic cloud, making it condense and not disperse. It can only be distributed around a fixed orbit, and when necessary, it converts gravity into pressure. , to transfer specific spell bits to specific individuals—withdrawers or lenders—that is the principle of borrowing spell bits.”

"So it is." Joan was amazed, "This is really amazing!"

The protective glasses blocked the strong light radiation inside the base station. Qiao An could look directly at the central area of ​​the "magic cloud", and soon found three shadows floating in the center of the magic cloud. He couldn't help but secretly marveled.

The "magic cloud" is like a huge galaxy, which can gather billions of planets to revolve around its core without escaping. So where does the gravitational force that prevents the magic bits from escaping come from?

After a little observation, Qiao An saw the clues. It turns out that the gravitational force that restrains the spell space comes from the three shadows at the core of the magic cloud, and its essence is divine power.

Joan took two steps forward and carefully identified the three shadow-like floating objects in the center of the "magic cloud" that gradually became clear in his vision. One was a diamond-shaped blue crystal the size of a fist, and the other was in the shape of a book. The last ax-shaped object was the most familiar. It was the artifact "Black Axe" that he and Roland had seized when they jointly killed "The Wood Destroyer" Doran Trexis.

"Your Majesty, are the three items floating in the center of the magic cloud all artifacts?" Joan asked.

"That's right, apart from the black ax that was added later, the other two are artifacts created by the 'God of Magic' Boccob himself, the 'Alchemy Stone' and the 'Book of Ten Thousand Laws'. Provides a strong and long-lasting centripetal force, restraining spell slots from escaping."

Roland went on to introduce: "Although the artifact is powerful, the divine power contained in it is limited after all. It can only be used as the foundation to determine the lower limit of the cloud network."

"As the scale of the cloud network continues to expand and its functions continue to improve, more and more energy is required to maintain its work. It cannot be supported by three artifacts alone. More artifacts must be added, or their divine power must be replenished regularly. "

Tamara followed His Majesty's words and said: "In addition to the daily maintenance of the cloud network, my team and I also have an important mission to establish an intelligence network and collect rumors about artifacts and demigods. If the news is true, we will formulate a plan. , His Majesty will come forward to organize the manpower, seize the artifact, hunt and kill the demigods, and replenish energy for the magic base."

Joan's heart was moved when she heard the words, and she asked the Vampire Queen: "Last fall, Your Majesty and I hunted down the 'wood destroyer' Doran Theresis together. His Majesty said that the corpse of the evil god could be stuffed into the magic base for firewood, but I didn't see his body, did it burn up so quickly?"

"That's not enough." Tamara explained with a smile, "As soon as the corpse of the evil god was stuffed into the base station, it decomposed into pure magic power. The strong light radiation you feel at this moment is actually the energy released by the burning of the corpse of the evil god."

Joan nodded suddenly, turned to Roland and said, "Your Majesty, you should close the shell of the base station so as not to waste energy."

Roland smiled slightly, and chanted the mantra to remotely close the brass case, and the light in the hall dimmed accordingly.

"Dr. Vader, this is the end of today's visit. Next, let's go to the restaurant next door to have a cup of tea and take a rest. I have one more troublesome matter to discuss with you."

Joan took off the protective goggles and returned them to Tamara, muttering resentfully: "Even you find it troublesome, it must be no small matter!"

The two sat down in the restaurant next door, and Tamara served tea.

"Your Majesty, seeing that you are frowning, are you still worried about Er Si Tianyu's safety?" Joan asked in a low voice.

Roland nodded slightly, crossed his hands on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Dr. Vader, to be honest, I am very conflicted, and I am hesitating whether to introduce the 'Cloud Network' into Ersi Tianyu, and gradually bring my hometown Transform it into a magical world similar to Vales Tianyu."
